the familiarity right in front of my eyes,
that was you, the reminiscent of a beautiful sunrise
like the morning light after a dark storm,
you were a sweet release, the ultimate sense of warmth

i knew all of your favorite songs and sentiments,
and you, all of my complicated brilliance
the way you lovingly flashed your bright smile,
i became aware that you would be around for awhile

how could it be that you were always standing there?
one-sided knowing that it was love, that just wasn't fair
maybe it was for me to realize it on my own.
that no one else but you could be my home
